Chery's EXEED brand began pre-sales for its new energy car, the STERRA ET, on April 15, 2024. The model comes in two versions: Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) and Range-Extended Electric Vehicle (REEV), with prices ranging from 199,000 yuan to 329,000 yuan.
As the flagship model of EXEED's high-end new energy lineup, the STERRA ET efficiently combines Chery's 27 years of automotive production expertise. The BEV version has a record range of up to 760 kilometers, while the REEV version goes over 1,500 kilometers.
Let's look at each variant:
